Welcome to ChitChat!

Just thought I’d say hi see how everyone’s doing

We were at a disaster preparedness meeting on Wednesday night for the next time we are faced with a disaster so we can be organized, neighborhood by neighborhood to help each other, since 911 and police would not be able to answer all of the calls. The Fire Chief was there and shared that on the Archie fire, if the wind had not changed direction when it did, that all of Sutherlin would have burned and there would have been nothing they could have done about it. I am SO grateful.

Hi! Does this pattern come with the cute black cat button, or is that a separate purchase?

Just got my Hallowe’en picture from the framers. Will go in the mail tomorrow to my Hallowe’en crazy grandson😃

I can't find the wish list.

Hi there everyone!! October is quickly approaching and that means that the October release of our ECS Stitchin' Stuff Box is coming up...YAY!! I usually post some sort of "sneak peek" with each release so here is the October 2020 sneak peek for ya!! As usual, I won't comment on if anyone is right or wrong but I love hearing your guesses as to what the theme is!! Stay tuned to your emails and our socials because the box will be released sometime in October 😉🍁🍂🎃 ~Kristi @ ECS

I purchased a couple of the cheap Janlynn oval shaped gold plastic ornament frames for two Christmas cross stitches I did for great grandchildren. The frames would be fine but I can't figure out how to put the cross stitch in the frame. I tried cutting a piece of cardboard thinking I could use it as a backing but then it won't stay in the frame, keeps falling out. Have any of you ever used these frames? Thanks.

Rylyn came home from the hospital for good yesterday. Big smiles all round. Dwayne showed me picture of her - no hair but looks so cute. She's put on weight. She got to ring the gong and all the staff gathered round to say good bye. Let's hope that's it for her. Thank you so much for all your prayers and continued prayers that she doesn't have to go through this ever again. Thank you to everyone who sent her cards, especially the person who sent one to Rylyn, her mom, dad and brother. She will be doing school remotely for the time being, probably all year. She had to write a paragraph as part of an assignment and said she was "looking forward to going her to see her dog and her brother", in that order. LOL Staff is so happy. Again, thanks for all the prayers and cards.

Hello lady's, I am looking for two blackwork charts I have one that I have a photo of but I'll have to leave another message so you may see the second pattern photo. They are older patterns and I have been trying to find where to purchase them. Now the second pattern which is by Thea Gouverneur called Galleon it's a Spanish ship I found. But I am having a hard time justifying $93.00, even though it includes the fabric and floss. The second pattern is a Holbien called the Needlewoman. If you search Holbien web site it's there but you can not buy it. Please help if you can and I'm leaving another message so I can post a picture of the Spanish galleon. Thanks CeeCee

Only used 14ct Aida what is 25 ct openweave there are too many fabric names -attempting to try a new one
